Although Bo Saixi was fooled by someone to doubt his life, this did not affect the game, and I don't know if it was a coincidence or other reasons, in the round before the finals, Tian Hao's king... No, it was Wang Xuan's vest that faced the Wuhun Hall Academy team.

It's still the old rule, after the ordinary team members of the two sides fought, Tian Hao turned into Wang Xuan's vest and confronted Tianjiao of the Wuhun Hall Academy team, this time he didn't use a clone, but an opponent arranged by the grandfather himself, named Chihiro Ji!

A name that is both familiar and unfamiliar.

"One hit is the winner!"

The golden wings behind her flapped, and Chihiro Ji said the decisive battle method coldly and arrogantly.

"One hit is the winner!"

Tian Hao nodded and did not refuse.

Receiving Tian Hao's response, the golden wings behind Chihiro Ji flapped into the sky, and the golden angel realm expanded, and a flaming sword manifested in his hand, which faintly resonated with the sun, and countless rays of light were distorted towards the flaming sword to converge, making the surrounding sky dark.

"Four Extreme Attributes!"

Sensing the soul power attribute that the angel girl burst out, Bo Saixi's whole person was numb, and the Seagod Divine Mind was also numb.

They sensed the ultimate light, extreme fire and extreme divine in the angel girl, in addition to the extreme sword intent, in which the extreme divine attribute and the extreme fire attribute were fused into a composite attribute.

This is a bit against the sky!

The attributes of the angel gods back then were not so luxurious, how did the Wuhun Hall cultivate the Seraphim inheritor to that extent?

It's not scientific!

Looking at the luxurious attributes of Chihiro Ji's outbreak, Tian Hao, who was incarnated as Wang Xuan below, was very speechless, this girl arranged by the grandfather is really difficult to deal with!

Of course, emotion is emotion, and the play still has to be fought.

"Roar!"

A tiger roar came out of his mouth, Tian Hao did not cast the Heavenly Demon Tiger transformation, but manifested the Heavenly Demon Tiger martial soul, turned it into a phantom, and at the same time burst out of soul power to fill it.

The Extreme Dark Demon Realm unfolded, devouring all the surrounding energy, including the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi and various elemental powers, and through the powerful devouring nature of the Extreme Dark Demon Domain, it was transformed into the Dark Demon Soul Power and integrated into the Heavenly Demon Tiger Phantom.

With the integration of a huge amount of soul power, the Heavenly Demon Tiger became larger and larger, and soon turned into a hundred-meter-tall and three-hundred-meter-long behemoth.

If it weren't for the huge enough venue, it really wouldn't be able to accommodate such a big guy.

After the body stabilized, under Tian Hao's control, the Heavenly Demon Tiger Martial Soul raised its head, and the huge mouth opened, and the black dark demon soul power and the golden King Kong soul power fused perfectly inside, turning into a dark golden ball of light.

This is not over, after the fusion of the dark demon soul power and the King Kong soul power, Tian Hao integrated the sword intent into it.

Chihiro Hime in the air quickly gathered momentum to the limit of her control, and a ball of light, or fireball, like the sun was condensed on the tip of the sword.

Chihiro Hime's previous life fused the divine attribute and the fire attribute into the holy flame attribute, although the person changed after rebirth, but this power was preserved, and with the help of Qiandaoliu, he cultivated his three attributes to the extreme, and even the sword intent was driven by the divine attribute to the extreme, and the strength can be said to be very strong.

Now, with the Holy Flame as the foundation, the power of this move formed by fusing the light attribute and the ultimate sword intent can be imagined.

"Holy Blade Judgment!"

Once you have reached the limit, you slash your sword and stab down.

The ball of light turned into a pillar of light and shot down, extremely fast, and extremely hot, and the air was violently distorted by the scorching.

Compared with Chihiro Ji's high profile, Tian Hao is much more low-key, or because the tiger's mouth is occupied, there is no way to shout the name of the move to increase the momentum.

The dark golden ball of light that had also been building up for a long time in his mouth turned into a pillar of light and shot out, facing the golden pillar of light that shot down.

The two pillars of light collided halfway through, and then they fought against each other.

At the same time, Tian Hao continued to use the Dark Demon Domain to devour the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi and the transformation of elemental power into power to bless the mouth cannon skill, and used the Dark Demon Domain to fight against Chihiro Ji's Angel Domain.

In this way, the two major realms of one gold and one black are constantly fighting, the angel realm is purifying the dark demon realm, and the dark demon realm is also devouring the angel realm, and the two are fighting each other and not giving in to each other.

The two pillars of light were also fighting with each other, and it was impossible to see who could fight to the end for the time being, but Tian Hao didn't want to keep fighting against each other.

The Dark Demon Realm gradually deformed, turning into an illusory giant tiger head, and the huge mouth opened and swallowed Chihiro Ji and the Angel Realm in one gulp, and the absolute side continued to draw the sun's blessing and explosion with the help of the Angel Realm.

Seeing this scene, Qiandaoliu stood up suddenly, but was suppressed by a sudden burst of murderous aura, Bo Saixi turned his head to look, and found that it was the killing intent that Sword Douluo had erupted, obviously warning Qiandaoliu not to interfere in the game.

She wasn't surprised by this, she had talked to that little ghost about this Sword Douluo before, and said that his character was quite reliable, when she didn't come before, that little ghost would have taken refuge under Sword Douluo's hands, otherwise she would have been wiped out by the Wuhun Palace.

The black tiger's head continued to shrink, as if it was about to devour and digest the whole Chihiro Ji inside.

It continued to shrink like this, and when it shrank to the size of ten meters, a golden sword qi broke open and flew out, followed by an embarrassed golden shadow, which was Chihiro Ji.

"You've won!"

With a sigh of relief, Chihiro looked down at the black giant tiger below, and flew back to the stands of the Wuhun Hall team after unwillingly leaving a word.

She did lose this battle, although she was more explosive, but who would have thought that others would have such strong control, and when they fought with their own strength, they could be distracted and manipulate the field to attack.

But she made a note of this man, and she will definitely defeat him in the future.

Seeing Chihiro Ji admit defeat and fly away, Tian Hao just took back the Dark Demon Realm and the martial soul that manifested and expanded to restore his original body, but his face was not very good-looking, and there was even a layer of golden flames burning on his body.

Without words, Tian Hao, who was wearing Wang Xun's vest, left the field directly after the referee announced the victory, obviously in a very bad state.

This scene was seen by everyone, and the corners of Chihiro Ji's lips in the stands of the Wuhun Hall team were slightly hooked, and her holy flame was not so easy to swallow.

"Daddy!"

Seeing that his fiancé was not in the right state, Zhu Zhuyun looked at his father anxiously, and hurriedly left from the rear passage after his father nodded.

"I'll take a look!"

At this time, Dai Xueyi suddenly spoke, said a word to the Grand Duke of the Netherworld, and then left with Zhu Zhuyun.

On the other side, Tian Hao, who was wearing Wang Xun's vest, returned straight to the hotel, accompanied by Wang Hu, Zhu Zhuyun and Dai Xueyi.

"How can we help you?"

As soon as he returned to the hotel, Zhu Zhuyun didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly how to help.

"Martial Soul Fusion Technique!"

Pretending to be very uncomfortable, Tian Hao said a word, and stretched out his right hand, then glanced at Dai Xueyi, who was following his fiancée, and stretched out his left hand to signal to help.

Glancing at Dai Xueyi in surprise, Zhu Zhuyun didn't say anything, reached out to hold her fiancé's palm, and resonated with her soul power.

Dai Xueyi hesitated, and finally reached out to hold someone's palm and transmitted his soul power.

Because of his previous cultivation, Zhu Zhuyun successfully completed the martial soul fusion technique with Tian Hao, and his entire body was integrated into Tian Hao's body.

And Dai Xueyi used the power of the martial soul and the head soul bone to complete a high-level resonance with Tian Hao, and slowly integrated into his body.

In the end, the bodies of the three disappeared, and a huge white-veined black tiger appeared in the room, somewhat like a Netherworld White Tiger, but the black and white colors were reversed, and it was the Martial Soul Fusion Technique.

And after completing the martial soul fusion technique with Dai Xueyi, Tian Hao started to operate, first extracting a little bit of the origin of his eighth soul ring, which was the most important task.

That's right, this time he took the initiative to guide Dai Xueyi over.

At the beginning, after Ghost Douluo brought back the upgraded Bright King Kong Tiger's head soul bone, he turned the half of the White Tiger Martial Soul that had been separated before into the purest source power and integrated it into the head soul bone, and then asked Ghost Douluo to make reasonable arrangements for Dai Xueyi to get this soul bone, and then refine it, which had a resonance and attracted it.

After all, his current Heavenly Demon Tiger Martial Spirit came out of the same origin as it, and naturally had a high-intensity resonance, which was enough to attract Dai Xueyi to take the initiative to find it.

This was his original plan, with the help of martial soul fusion to quietly obtain the origin of Dai Xueyi's eighth soul ring, and in the future, even if the Shura God used the White Tiger God Divine Test to check Dai Xueyi's memory, there would not be the slightest flaw.

After extracting the origin of the soul ring, Tian Hao split the power of Chihiro Ji and sealed the extreme light into his body, and the extreme sword intent was divided into three, keeping one for himself, and the other two were given to Zhu Zhuyun and Dai Xueyi respectively.

After an hour like this, Tian Hao ended the state of the martial soul fusion technique and separated Zhu Zhuyun and Dai Xueyi from their bodies.

"You go back to refining first, and I can handle the rest."

explained to the two daughters, and Tian Hao closed his eyes and cultivated.

Although the golden holy flame was still burning on his body, the aura of soul power had stabilized, and he even opened the dark demon realm to devour the golden holy flame.

"He's all right!"

Wang Hu, who had been protecting the Dharma on the side, left the room first after saying a word, although Zhu Zhuyun was still very worried, he could only leave, and Dai Xueyi, who had been speechless, followed closely.

"Aren't you going to give an explanation?"

Returning to the suite where he lived, Zhu Zhuyun turned around and looked at the snowcoat, with a glitter in his eyes.

I was very puzzled when I came back with her in a snow suit, but then my fiancé was able to resonate with her and perform the martial soul fusion technique, which made her feel very bad.

She is a very possessive woman, and naturally she doesn't want the man she likes to have a relationship with another woman.

"I don't know how to explain it, maybe you can ask him."

There was silence, and Dai Xueyi finally did not explain.

That head soul bone was accidentally obtained by her some time ago, and it was a rare 100,000-year-old soul bone, and it was even the most precious head soul bone, which was priceless.

If she tells this secret, I'm afraid she will be remembered.

After all, a head soul bone is enough for a person to refine a 100,000-year soul ring, and no one will not be moved, and it is even possible that there will be people within the royal family who will think about it.

There was no way, she guessed that this soul bone should be a bright King Kong Tiger, so it could fit perfectly with her martial soul, and even made her eyes change.

If the royal family knew that he had obtained a 100,000-year-old Bright King Kong Tiger head soul bone, I am afraid that the old emperor who was in retreat might be tempted.

As for family affection or something, it's a joke, born in the emperor's family, there is no so-called family affection at all.

So you can't tell anyone this secret.

Zhu Zhuyun was naturally very dissatisfied with this answer, but she couldn't say anything, after all, when it came to status, wearing a snow coat as the president of the Royal Academy was much higher than herself, and now she was a Title Douluo, and her strength was far beyond herself, she was not qualified to question and interrogate the other party at all, and if people didn't say it, she couldn't do anything.

However, she had to keep this in mind, and she had to redouble her efforts to cultivate, increase her soul power to level fifty as soon as possible, and then start hunting for a hundred thousand year soul ring.

At that time, you will be able to add five hundred thousand year soul rings in one go, and the one hundred thousand year soul ring will inevitably be able to greatly increase the soul power, and it is not impossible to directly refine the sixth or even seventh one hundred thousand year soul ring.

When the time comes, the seven hundred thousand year soul ring will be added, and he will be a real Tianjiao, and he will be able to obtain Wang Lang's approval and become a real fiancée.

At the same time, Dai Xueyi, who returned to the room, also meditated and cultivated seriously, refining the sword intent and light attribute soul power that the person transferred and sealed into his body.

Naturally, she had already started to practice kendo, and even went to the kendo square of the Phantom Sound Academy, but her talent in kendo was not very good, and she had not achieved great results.

Now that he has that ultimate sword intent, he will definitely be able to quickly improve his sword intent by using it as a grinding stone to continuously temper it.

Not to mention that after refining the head soul bone of the Bright Vajra Tiger, her spiritual power increased several times, which was even more conducive to cultivating sword intent.

Of course, that light attribute is also of great benefit to her, and it fits perfectly with her martial soul.

As long as these two powers are refined, their own strength will definitely be able to multiply several times, and even impact the ninety-sixth-level Super Douluo.

Not to mention the two women on this side, Tian on the other side skillfully took out the clone clone and left it in the room to cultivate, and he used the space to teleport away, and with the help of Lan Luan's cover, he transformed into Hai Bodong's vest identity.

Before, with the help of Lan Luan and Wang Hu, he constantly rotated between the two identities, plus Bo Saixi and the Seagod Trident were restrained by Qiandaoliu and Angel God, so he didn't show the slightest flaw, everything was quite perfect.

After such a night, Tian Hao came to the competition venue with Hai Bodong's vest, and the doppelganger on the other side also came to the venue with the appearance of Wang Xuan, and the two looked at each other.

"Extreme Ice Realm!"

"Extreme Dark Demon Realm!"

The two realms unfolded, one dark and the other icy blue, colliding with each other.

The Extreme Ice Realm can freeze everything, and the realm can naturally freeze as well.

But the Extreme Dark Demon Realm is not a vegetarian, it can devour everything, and the realm can also devour, at most, the speed of devouring is different.

"Xuanbing Dragon Xiang!"

Without much nonsense, Tian Hao's burst of soul power condensed the ice dragon suspended in the air, and if you count carefully, there are nine, one more than last time.

This is not over, after the nine ice dragons stabilized, Tian Hao fused them into one, and finally turned into a four-hundred-meter-long Xuanbing Divine Dragon.

At the same time, he manipulated the clone vest on the opposite side to perform yesterday's move, expanding the Heavenly Demon Tiger Martial Spirit into a hundred-meter-tall and three-hundred-meter-long behemoth.

After the dragon and the tiger looked at each other, the ice dragon rushed down decisively, and the black tiger also stood up and waved the tiger claws, and the extreme sword intent and the extreme vajra soul power fused into an unparalleled edge, tearing apart the cracks in the space.

This time, the super-large ice dragon formed by the fusion of the nine-headed ice dragon is not only exaggerated in size, but also very amazingly powerful.

In particular, the dragon claw was also blessed with extreme gun intent, and the edge also tore the space apart from the Dao crack.

The two behemoths scuffled in the arena, and although the style of play was primitive and rough, the power was quite amazing.

If it weren't for the golden light curtain around them, the auditorium would have been destroyed by the aftermath of the battle.

"At the time, I thought it was too big, but now it's still small."

Feng Aotian smiled helplessly, he was really ignorant back then!

In comparison, the vision of the Holy Spirit Sword Saint is very different, no wonder people can become Tianjiao, this advanced thinking realm alone is very unusual.

There are many people with similar thoughts, and even the many Titled Douluo of the two empires and even the Martial Spirit Hall are numb when they look at the two behemoths that clash in the arena.

Although I don't want to admit it, the strength of the two juniors has already surpassed that of them, the powerhouses of the older generation, even if it is a ninety-ninth level peak Douluo, I am afraid that it will have this kind of combat power.

In this way, Tian Hao and the clone vest finally jumped out of the ice dragon and the giant tiger at the same time to start a progressive fight, and at the same time did not let go of the control of the giant dragon and the giant tiger, and continued to attack and kill.

The two of them fought the bodies of the giant tiger and the dragon, and their combat power was equally amazing, and the space was like tofu under the edge of the two.

"Extreme Sword Intent!"

Sensing that extreme sword intent, Bo Saixi's wonderful eyes fell on the black figure, and he was amazed in his heart, and at the same time glanced at the angel girl in the stands of the Martial Spirit Hall Academy.

Although the one from the Xuanhu clan showed the ultimate sword intent, it was different from the extreme sword intent that he felt from that little ghost at the beginning, but it was almost exactly the same as the extreme sword intent displayed by the angel girl yesterday, or it was originally that the angel girl's extreme sword intent was obviously obtained through some means.

This is probably the main reason why the other side left in a hurry after the war yesterday.

Bo Saixi thought so, and many people also thought the same way, and they were very curious about how the Xuanhu Academy obtained the ultimate sword intent of the angel girl.

And Chihiro Ji naturally saw her sword intent used by someone, and she was immediately angry, clenching her teeth, and staring at someone in battle with golden eyes.

Miss Ben remembers you!

In this way, Tian Hao used simple and crude giant special effects to maintain the battle, but fortunately, he practiced his distraction control method well, and he could control it perfectly.

Manipulating the two behemoths consumed a lot of mental energy, and it lasted for an hour to remove it, and then continue to fight in person.

One of the two of them condenses the essence of sword qi based on the palm of his hand, and the other holds the Dinghai Divine Spear to fight fast, and every sword, every shot can penetrate the space, almost indestructible.

The Heavenly Demon Sect was covered with scars, Tian Hao himself was not much better, the Xuanbing battle armor was tattered, and there were also a lot of scars on his body.

Such a fight made the battle fierce, and in the end, Chenxin couldn't stand it anymore, and threw out the Seven Killing Sword according to the script to separate the two and stop the battle.

"This battle is a draw!"

As the representative of the Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Qinghe turned his head to look at Bibi Dong, who had been speechless, and said that this was a draw.

"My father has the same intention!"

The Nether Grand Duke followed up and agreed to the decision of a draw.

"Only this time, the other seven soul bone rewards will remain unchanged, and you both have to come up with another set of soul bones as a reward."

Bibi Dong, who was cross-legged, nodded in response, but made a request, saying that if you want a draw and two champions, you have to prepare another soul bone reward, and this kind of thing can only happen this once.

Xue Qinghe and the Netherworld Grand Duke looked at each other and nodded, admitting this request, even if this itself was the result of what they had secretly agreed upon.

After all, the two academies belong to their two empires, and the Soul Hall of the Soul Master University naturally doesn't like it when there are two more Soul Master Universities at the same time, not to mention that the Soul Hall Academy team is still defeated, and it still can't be promoted to the Soul Master University.

Although limited by the rules of the Soul Master Competition, they can only choose to agree, but it is absolutely impossible to come up with another set of soul bone rewards, which will have to be paid by the two of them.

Fortunately, since the change of heaven and earth, not only has the strength of their soul masters become stronger, but the soul beast side has also improved overall, and even the explosion rate of soul bones has increased significantly.

In the past few years, there have been many soul bones for sale on the black market, although they are extremely expensive, but at least they are no longer as priceless as before.

And at the level of the empire, that little money is really nothing, at most a little tax increase can make up for it, there will be no problem.

Next is the award session, Tian Hao and the doppelganger vest stepped forward together to accept the award from the little teacher, and received four soul bones respectively, and the rest will be made up by the royal families of the two empires after returning to China.

Then it was to go to the Douluo Hall to worship according to the custom, and then to play on the side of the Martial Spirit City and the Great Wall Defense Front, and everyone's eyes fell on those Holy Light Divine Trees.

Compared to the original row that only had the front line, each wall is now planted with Holy Light Divine Trees on both sides, and the Holy Light Shield is formed to envelop each area.

"I think this one is good, and it looks better than the others?"

"No, no, no, it's the one that has the most developed root system, and it's more suitable for growing in the environment of Poseidon Island......"

……

Bo Saixi walked behind, helplessly looking at a certain little ghost who was carrying the Poseidon Trident and communicating with the Poseidon Divine Thoughts, he really wanted to pretend not to know each other, and at the same time, his cognition of the Poseidon was completely shattered.

In the past, her perception of the sea god was majestic, but since the little ghost came, the sea god's thoughts broke her previous cognition again and again, and it seemed really obscene when she looked closely.

Is this really the god of the sea that they believe in?

That's right, Tian Hao, who was carrying the Seagod Trident, was thinking about the tree with the Seagod God, and after leaving Wuhun City, he secretly turned back and started digging.

After playing on the Great Wall for several days, they finally selected the most satisfactory Holy Light Divine Tree, and then Tian Hao and Bo Saixi left Wuhun City and went straight to the old site of the Haotian Clan.

"How many days are you going to wait?"

Looking at Bo Saixi, who was full of divine power, Tian Hao asked.

He took the initiative to come to the old site of Haotian Sect, and the explanation given was to lure Tang Chen to come out and meet with Bo Saixi.

However, he guessed that Tang Chen would most likely not show up, firstly, for the sake of secrecy, and secondly, Tang Chen's current appearance was not very decent.

"One day is enough!"

Maintaining the explosion of divine power, Bo Saixi said with a complicated expression.

Regardless of whether you want to start a new relationship with that little ghost, the covenant with Tang Chen to become a god back then has to be broken.

Since Tang Chen didn't come to see him, then he came to see him himself, if he didn't come out like this, then there was really nothing to say.

"It's a bit tight for a day."

Tian Hao looked distressed, as if he felt that time was very tight.

"I warn you, don't do bad things!"

Dai's eyebrows frowned slightly, and Bo Saixi felt that this little ghost had some shady ghost ideas.

"How can it be said to be a bad thing? I just want to go to the ancestral tomb of Haotian Sect to worship, really. ”

With an innocent smile, Tian Hao said that he was a simple good boy, what bad thoughts could he have?

"Can't you just be a good person?"

Bo Saixi felt a toothache and understood that this little ghost must have been eyeing the ancestral grave of Haotian Sect and wanted to dig up the treasure.

I used to plan the Holy Light Divine Tree of the Martial Spirit Hall of others, but now I am eyeing the ancestral tomb of Haotian Sect, are you like this?

"Xixi, don't worry about it, just hand me the harpoon, you wait here for Tang Chen's appearance."

stepped forward to take the Poseidon Trident from Bo Saixi's hand, Tian Hao ran away with a smile, and at the same time communicated with the Poseidon Divine Thought in the Poseidon Heart.

"Lord Seagod, please scan the entire Haotian Sect's mountain, I am a little worse in the use of divine sense, and you have to take care of this matter."

"Is it really rewarding?"

Seagod Shennian was a little hesitant about this approach, even if he inherited the obscene and sullen nature of the ontology, he also felt that this approach was a bit excessive.

"I can't guarantee it, but it's all here, it's a pity not to go in and have a look, what if there is a harvest?"

Tian Hao shrugged his shoulders and said that he was not sure, this kind of thing depends on luck.

The Seagod Divine Mind didn't say anything more, and spread his divine consciousness to envelop the entire Haotian Sect and several surrounding mountains, and finally sensed a space.

Locked the position, used the vortex water shield to turn into a shield machine to break through a passage from outside the mountain, and walked in to see that it was indeed the ancestral tomb of Haotian Sect.

It may be that he was worried that the tombs of his ancestors would be destroyed by others, so Haotianzong also stored the coffins of his ancestors in the depths of the mountain, so they have been preserved intact so far.

"Lord Poseidon, come and light the light."

Rubbing his hands excitedly, Tian Hao was ready to do a big job.

"Hopefully something to gain."

The Seagod Divine Nian complained, and immediately attracted the Seagod's light inside the trident to illuminate the entire mountain space, and there were countless dense sarcophagi inside, all of which were the deceased ancestors of Haotian Sect's own family.

And this cemetery space is divided into several levels, and this is only the top level, and there are still below.

Tian Hao unceremoniously stepped forward and lifted the coffin board to rummage inside, although there was only a small chance of gain, but occasionally there could be some.

In fact, this place had already been infiltrated and patronized by Ghost Douluo, and all the valuable things were taken away, but he asked Ghost Douluo to come back again in person some time ago and place some special gifts.

This time I came for those special gifts, so that I could carry out some follow-up planning.

Not to mention Tian someone, who turned into a tomb robber here, and Bo Saixi, who burst out of divine power in the former site of Haotian Sect on the other side, waited quietly, watching the sunset and then the rising sun, hoping that the man would come out to see him.

Either way, it's time for them to make a break with each other.

What Bo Saixi didn't know was that Tang Chen had actually arrived a long time ago, and he sensed it after sensing that Bo Saixi's breath appeared on the mainland, and then he had been hiding in the gap in the space and watching from afar.

He saw that Bo Saixi's intention was to see himself, but how could he meet him now?

Looking at the hideous divine costume on his body and the evil and depraved aura of the killing realm, and then looking at the holy Bo Saixi, Tang Chen was ashamed of himself, and didn't want that woman to see what he looked like now.

"It's going to be soon, it's going to be soon, and when the sacrifice is completed, only the soul is left, and I can give up this ugly appearance."

muttering to himself, Tang Chen could only endure himself.
